This book examines faith-based organizations (FBOs)1 and their attempts to influence debate and decision making at the United Nations (UN). The background to this issue is FBOs' growing transnational significance. There is increasing scholarly and policy attention paid to FBOs both in the context of post-Cold War "religious resurgence" and, more generally, "postsecular" international relations. The UN is an important focus of the new postsecular international environment involving FBOs.KeywordsUnited NationsMission StatementFaith TraditionUnited Nation Population FundReligious ResurgenceThese keywords were added by machine and not by the authors.
